Chelgis V and Chelgis I
Installation with hair
In Chelgis V, commissioned by the Museum Rietberg, rifle barrels, concealed by knots of hair artfully wound around them, emerge from the wall and aim at the Polish weapons, thereby evoking a more critical perception of Persian endless knots on military equipment.
